Osteopoikilosis

Discussion:

Osteopoikilosis is an autosomal dominant benign sclerosing bony dysplasia, typically found incidentally on imaging studies done for other orthopedic reasons 1-4. The radiographic and CT features are multiple benign enostoses 1-4.  Its importance is predominantly to recognize this condition so that it is not mistaken for pathology and prevent unnecessary emotional distress and invasive testing 2,4.

 This case demonstrates an atypical presentation of osteopoikilosis diagnosed incidentally, with involvement of the skull and spine.
